Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.
If that upgrade is stuck at 99% for that amount of time, you have no other choice, force your PC to restart, and check if the upgrade will then continue the installation of version 22h2 to completion.
What should I do if the Windows 11 Installation Assistant is very slow / stuck

Hi.
I've been trying to get Windows 11 22H2 on my XPS 15 7590 with Win11 21H2 22000.2295. After some searching, I could figure out that due to "Bloat" on the EFI Partition, there wasn't enough space for the upgrade. I extended the partition to 200 MB in hopes that it would help. In fact, it did help and the Installer did not abort anymore with the error 0xc00000005, but instead would now run without error.
Now to the new Problem I am facing. The Windows 11 Installation Assistant is at 99% for 9 hours now, and I do not know what to do.

2023-11-21T14:01:19+00:00 I had the same problem and it was stock at 98% .. I shut it down
I won't continue with Windows 11, however, will this operation affect my PC? How can I clean after this to guarantee that I can work smoothly with Windows 10 as usual?
